I picked up a used 2011 F-150 Lariat Supercrew just 5 days ago and it's quite the improvement over the 2004 FX4 SuperCab that I traded in. Has the 5.0 V8 and 162K miles but drives like new and has almost no rust on the undercarriage. No mods yet but initially installing Weathertech mats, lights from F150leds.com, and a ZeeDee tailgate assist..
My new baby.
Congratulations let the moddings begin. Alot of the mods are cheap. Getting a shorty antenna, opening your headlights paint the chrome shell black or removing the emblems and paint the inside white and black. Plasti dip is your friend and options are endless. The best part is you can just peel it off if you don't like it.
Well this was my weekend project. Took the plasti dip off the bumpers and sprayed them with tintable raptor liner mixed with oxford white paint. Did not come out exaxtly match but I had an extra can of color matched paint sitting around. Did two thick coats of raptor liner, one coat of paint and two coats of 2k clear coat. I'm happy with how it came out. I'm impressed with the stuff enough that I already ordered a black kit to do my bed next week. Only used half the kit to get two very thick coats on the bumpers. Product is extremely hard after one day and doesn't fully cure for a week. Clear coat definitely finished it off nicely. Debating on doing my entire rockers with it now. What do you guys think?
Have you had any issues so far with the Raptor Liner on the bumpers or cleanup? It looks crazy good, and i didn't know anyone had done this yet. I've got my XL in the shop right now to do some painting and I ordered the U-Pol kit in tintable for the rocker panels, but after seeing it on your bumpers I think the rocker panels can wait. I also ordered the bed liner kit as well. If you could PM me about what your paint ratio ended up being in the tinted stuff. Thanks!
Absolutely love my 2010. Which I would of waited till the new engines came out but I still love it! I have Procomp prorunner leveling struts. New 35/12.5/17 BFG TAKO 2 and a bunch of other fun stuff to boot!
